Dialogue

 God, it’s me, Regine. My mind is all over the place. I know You’re there. I just wonder where I am. Am I stuck in my own malaise, my own fear. I know when I ask questions, I grow. Growing is never an easy process. I’m doing the things right now, I swore I never would. Don’t tell God never. You will end up doing that thing. I ask how your heart is, because I can’t focus on myself anymore. It brings anxiety. Thinking is not a good thing anymore. I must pray and go and do it. I will convince myself to not do the things I must. 

So what is really on your heart?  Anything you’ve read that’s struck a chord?  When you share you story, it reminds me to share mine. The unsavory bits included.

    Sometimes I feel I think too much about things, remember as a kid everything was simple, no need to figure things out they were just the way they were and you went with it, too bad growing up causes us to stop that

    Just breathe and be grateful for all you have! It puts focus back on where you are in this life :)

    Hi, Regine!
    I guess we all feel like that, sometimes, due to the things we go through in life.
    This week (yesterday, actually) I found this site and I LOVE it! It said so much to my heart... so many things I NEEDED to hear.
    I hope you like it, too.

    Hugs. My mind is also all over the place. I am/we are still mourning for our cat Jazz who went on his last trip to the vet ten days ago. The house is empty without him.

    This happens to the best of us. May you find calm and the focus you need to move forward.

    I am reminded of my friend's struggle right now. She is an uncomfortable situation with family and she must keep going. God is with her and you my friend!

    Dearest Regine,
    We all are at such crossroads where we don't know WHERE to go.
    But remember, God is and remains our constant GPS; never failing and never forgetting about us.
    He will no doubt see us through and guide us HOME.
    Hugs,
    Mariette

    Yep, I've done things I swore I'd never do too. Have to move on. Hang in there, Regine!

    I'm sorry you're feeling so much anxiety. Praying God's peace saturates you.

    I've just finished a book called Living the Unseen by Wendy Backlund. One thing she writes about is how God is okay with process. He sent Jesus as a baby, then waited as He grew up. He had the Israelites walk around the walls of Jericho seven times... It's okay if we mess up as we learn about Him and grow in Him. He's okay with process.

    What struck a chord with me was 'don't tell God never'. Been there done that! Growth is a process, and God is so very patient and loving in His orchestrating of it in a surrendered soul.
    Blessings

    What's on my mind is to thank you for giving Nel encouragement on the chapters that she wrote on podcast. I hope you enjoy the stories. She's always wanted to write a children's book, and I'm glad she is doing that right now.

    We are having our old age doctoring right now. Gene is 81 and I am 80 in a few days. A doctors appointment or physical therapy every day for two weeks. Gets old, eh?? I’m not very spiritual so visiting you gives me insight to make me a stronger person and deal with problems. Thank you…..for your inspiration and caring.
